Mass Cancellations


I’ve just received this sad message and request from Fr. Paul, though I suppose in the light of all the examples of other countries, it was inevitable:

You may have heard that earlier today the Bishops announced the suspension of all public Masses until further notice.  This news will doubtless upset many.  Would you be kind enough to let people know that there is no Mass this coming Saturday or Sunday, and nothing until we hear more.
Best wishes, and keep well,

Please relay this message to anyone you know not on the internet.  However, for those who do not know, there is access to a LIVE MASS via the internet.  Just google ‘Live Mass at Warrington’ and click on the section of the page that says ‘Live Mass’. At 12.10 pm.  Traditional Rite Latin Masses from Monday will be held behind closed doors at St. Mary’s Shrine, but will be screened live: as will others around the world , details on the website.
Here’s hoping, God bless

March 29 Our Lady's, Swynnerton

This being an exceptional day for the Catholic Church in England, instead of the Lenten Stations preceding the 6 pm Latin Mass, at 5.15 pm there will be special prayers and Benediction offered for the rededication of England as Our Lady's Dowry. 

On the matter of the spread of the Coronavirus, in case this should involve directives concerning reception of the Sacred Host, the Chairman of the Latin Mass Society has written to priests who regularly or occasionally celebrate the Traditional Rite.

The LMS can be contacted via www.lms.org.uk
